11 Hacks For Looking Like You Washed Your Face, No Matter How Grimy You Really Are

With spring break and musical festival season on the horizon, that means winter is almost behind us. But if your travel plans involve staying in a place where washing your face isn't exactly easy (I'm looking at you, camping in Yosemite), you won't want to miss these hacks for looking like you washed your face. That way, you can keep your glow no matter how grungy you feel.

As a country girl that is all about that camping life, I've definitely learned a thing or two about how to fake a shower when there is just not a good stream around. Fortunately, with a little planning ahead, you can find the best strategy for you to keep nice and clean no matter where you end up pitching a tent!

I learned this lesson the hard way camping in Yosemite two years ago and not really thinking about needing any extra water beyond bottles for drinking. Major. Oops. I can only go a day or two without my skin turning into a complete oil monster and, by day three of camping and hiking, the pimple struggle was getting real.

Learn from my mistakes and prep yourself for whatever spring adventures await you with these faux face washing hacks!

7. Light Eye Shadow

You can open your eyes and add a "cleansed brightness" to your look by popping a bit of light eye shadow right under your brow and in the inner corner of your eyes.

8. Steam

If you're camping and need to boil water for cooking, put your face over the water (at least a foot away so you don't burn yourself!) and soak in the steamy goodness before wiping your face off with a wash cloth. It'll be like treating yourself to Audrey Hepburn steam mask!
